Tromsø vs BrightonPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

The Romssa Arena hosts a meeting between two very different worlds. Tromsø have alternated heavy wins and defeats: 5-0 and 2-1 against CFR Cluj, 6-2 at Aalesund, then 2-3 at Molde and a 1-3 loss at Hradec Kralove. Their evenings often pass two goals, though they nearly always hand some back. Brighton come in on three straight wins over serious opposition, 1-0 against Bologna, 3-0 against Roma and 4-3 against Strasbourg, after a 0-3 reverse with Manchester United and one cancelled fixture. The picture shows reliable scoring on both fronts and back lines that are far from watertight, with one reference point missing: these clubs had never faced each other. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
